Invokana Lawsuit Information

Invokana, a drug used to treat Type 2 diabetes, has been at the center of significant legal scrutiny due to its serious side effects. Initially hailed as a breakthrough in diabetes management, Invokana (Canagliflozin) came under fire when patients began experiencing severe health complications. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued multiple warnings about the risks associated with the drug, including diabetic ketoacidosis, urinary tract infections, and notably, an increased likelihood of lower limb amputations. This led to the formation of Multidistrict Litigation (MDL) 2750, consolidating over a thousand lawsuits alleging that Janssen Pharmaceuticals and Johnson & Johnson, the manufacturers, failed to adequately warn users of these severe risks. Despite settlements in many of these cases, the litigation continues, reflecting the ongoing concerns over Invokana's safety.

Patients taking Invokana have reported a range of serious injuries and health complications. The most alarming of these is the significantly increased risk of lower limb amputations, primarily involving toes and feet. Other severe side effects include diabetic ketoacidosis – a potentially life-threatening condition, kidney failure, bone health problems, and cardiovascular issues. Additionally, the FDA has warned about the risk of Fournier’s gangrene, a rare but severe bacterial infection. These complications can have profound impacts on patients' lives, leading to long-term health consequences, substantial medical expenses, and a diminished quality of life.
